Gov. Jack Dalrymple has slated a signing ceremony for a bill that will fast-track $1.1 billion for highways and communities affected by North Dakota’s exploding growth.

The governor’s staff says he will sign the bill Tuesday morning at the state Capitol.

The Senate voted 46-0 on Monday to approve the “surge funding” bill that is being rushed through the legislative process so projects can begin by summer. Most of the money is slated for the booming oil-producing region in the western part of the state.
